I'm having a similar issue here.
I tried altering the view just like you did but it doesn't work at all.
This is a serious problem for a multilang site.
I hope someone can help.

cheers

Hi Laush if you're still interested in a solution i have found something.

Please note that this method modifies the views.module file so it's really just a temporary workaround and might not work anymore if file gets overwritten during an upgrade.

On line 248 (tha's for me, line number may differ) find the function '_views_menu_item'.
Inside the function change:

'title' =>$title,

to

'title' => t($title),

After the modification i cleared the views cache even if i'm not sure that's needed.
